Honda has unveiled details and official images of its 2009 MY Civic Sedan, Coupe and Hybrid models that will go on sale in the North American market in the forthcoming weeks. Styling changes on the 2009 Civic sedan and coupe models include a revised front bumper with larger air intakes, a new grille and according to Honda, new headlight and taillight colour combinations, featuring clear turn indicator lenses with amber bulbs – though you have to try really hard to see the difference. The Civic EX, Civic EX-L and Civic Si models also get new alloy designs.
Interior changes are equally minimal and they concern the addition of Bluetooth HandsFreeLink to Navigation-equipped models and a USB Audio Interface to the Civic EX, EX-L, Hybrid and Si models while cloth materials and patterns on seats, door linings and armrests (when equipped) have also been updated. For the 2009 MY, the electronic stability control (VSA) is now standard on the Civic EX-L and Civic Hybrid models. -Continued
